Posted on 05.11.2025

Despite a historic run from 17th to 7th place in a matter of 3 months, Gaziantep could not keep up their momentum as they fell to Ankaragucu in the quarterfinals of the Turkish TBL playoffs.

“It was a great season overall” commented OD Anosike. “We won 11 games in a row at one point, we were the league’s hottest team during the second half of the season. Although we’re disappointed that we didn’t go further, we should all be proud of what we accomplished. I want to thank Gaziantep and everyone who played a part in our success. I look forward to seeing what’s next”.

Gaziantep completed the regular season with a 19-15 record. OD Anosike completed another productive season (his 12th professional year) with formidable statistics of 9.8 points, 10.2 rebounds (first in the league) and 2.7 assists while shooting 57 percent from the floor. He is now a free agent.
